The ousting of Apache Junction Unified School District Superintendent Heather Wallace means the district will be looking to hire its fourth superintendent in six years. Meanwhile, some are so upset over Wallace's ouster that they are talking about a recall of those responsible for the ousting.
Some students, parents and teachers in Apache Junction are furious, after the far East Valley community's school board ousted their superintendent.
"The majority of the board is saying and putting out statements that it was a mutual decision," said board member Bobby Bauders. "It was anything but." With Wallace's ousting, the school district is now looking to hire its fourth superintendent in six years. Some say the ousting is already having an impact on them and their families.
"I am so devastated on so many levels. I hate the fact that I’ve been put in a position where I have to consider if I want to stay," said Leen.
